John Neal confussed the facts, not KGTV!
I finally got completely fed up with all of this rhetoric regarding the DNA genetic samples found on an article of clothing in Danielle's room and decided to call SDPD myself. I placed my call to SDPD on Saturday morning, apx. 10:30 am 03-09-02, not really expecting to speak to anyone other than a desk duty information officer, but placed my call anyway on the outside chance that they might be able to answer my one simple question. However, I was transfered to a LT. J. Collins, who is assigned to the case and had come in to go over some paperwork.

I told Lt. Collins I was a former police investigator in Florida, and that I have been closely following the Danielle Van Dam case as the Van Dams were former Florida residents.

Lt. Collins politely informed me that a gag order had been impossed by the court and that he could release no other information or statements other than that which had previously been released by the Department prior to the gag order ruling, but what was the nature of my concern?

I then related to him the issue of the DNA genetic evidence which had been found on the article of clothing in Danielle's room, having been stated in an KGTV News report and in several different newspaper accounts quoting SDPD Chief Bejarano as having stated the DNA being that of David Westerfield.

He said those are true and correct statements, and that in fact the DNA genetic samples taken from the article of clothing found in Danielle's room are that of David Westerfield as correctly stated by chief Bejarano, and reported by the various news agencies.

He then stated to me that he couldn't identify the article of clothing or what the DNA genetic sample was, as that was classified privileged information which would be brought out at the trial as evidence.

Lt.Collins then asked me if there was anything else he could assist me with? I thanked him and told him no, that he had most effectively and professionally answered my question and that I was not seeking privileged or classified information in the case, just simple verification of previously stated facts and information by Chief Bejarano in public news interviews and press releases.

I honestly beleive that anyone could call SDPD and get the same information themselves, especially since most of you live there in California and I had to call long distance from Georgia.

At least that way you'd be dealing with facts and not speculation, supposition, or other peoples theories and opinions. Anyone can also do a word search and find the news articles, dates and publications which carried SDPD Chief Bejarano's statements regarding this issue. respectfully, DEC_25.

Mr. Boyce: And she could also have been killed in the room, too, in her bedroom. there's blood in the bedroom. i mean those are -- i'm not saying we are relying on those theories, but those are certainly theories that are out there. and there's been no evidence as to where, when, or how she was murdered.

They can't even agree where the body of Danielle van Dam was discovered / recovered. WHY?)

Psychic Robin
...the local news wanted psychics to locate Danielle Van Damme. Her body was found on Highway 138 within 24 hours...

THE WITNESS: DOCTOR BRIAN DOUGLAS BLACKBOURNE
Q. But we don't know how -- all you know is that you found -- this body was presented to you; is that correct?
A. We know a lot of people looking for the body and it finally was found in Descanso.

THE WITNESS: LARRY ALSTON
Q: DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA NOW WHEN YOU GOT THE CALL AND WHEN YOU ARRIVED?
A: YES. I RECEIVED THE CALL AT 1440, APPROXIMATELY 2:40 P.M. AND I ARRIVED AROUND 3:00 O'CLOCK.

Q: WHERE DID YOU GO?
A: I WENT TO THE -- APPROXIMATELY THE 4400 BLOCK OF DEHESA ROAD.

THE WITNESS: JAMES TOMSOVIC
Q. YOU NOTED THE HEAD WAS TO THE SOUTH AND ABOUT 42 FEET NORTH OF THE NORTH EDGE OF THE PAVED ROADWAY OF DEHESA, 3500 DEHESA ROAD, CORRECT?
A. CORRECT.

"...I THINK -- I THINK INITIALLY I WAS THINKING MAYBE SOMETHING I DID COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND MAYBE IF A PHOTO THAT I HAD PRIOR TO ANY OTHER TAMPERING COULD HAVE MAYBE BENEFITTED. BUT THAT'S WHY..."

"i watched on the news, i -- the moment i realized the body was moved prior to a twenty-four-hour period going around to be able to take the same type of photos, i thought maybe my photos could make a difference or could possibly be considered something that's helpful. So i called the d. A.

q: Do you have an idea now when you got the call and when you arrived?
A: Yes. I received the call at 1440, approximately 2:40 p.m. And i arrived around 3:00 o'clock.

Q: Where did you go?
A: I went to the -- approximately the 4400 block of dehesa road.

the witness: James tomsovic
q. You noted the head was to the south and about 42 feet north of the north edge of the paved roadway of dehesa, 3500 dehesa road, correct?
A. Correct.

San Diego police spokesman Dave Cohen said Danielle van Dam's whereabouts remains a mystery, and the disappearance is being treated as a missing person case.

"MAYBE IN CONNECTION WITH THE CASE BUT NOT WITH THE EVIDENCE. I KNOW WE DROVE OUTSIDE OF NORTHEASTERN. I DON'T THINK WE EVER WENT IN."

"THE HOMICIDE TOOK OVER RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL PHYSICAL EVIDENCE."

...Westerfield took the girl to his home and then on a trip in his motor home, the prosecutor said. Dusek speculated that Danielle was killed in the motor home, although authorities have not been able to determine how she died...

“Robbery did all the work, and homicide took all the glory. At one point, they were trying to give it to homicide, but they were backing away, [saying] ‘We don’t have a body yet.’”
(22 days BEFORE a body is found, homicide and Charles are in Charge?)

...• An old friend, Toni Mulhauser, living in San Diego, called Robin because the local news wanted psychics to locate Danielle Van Damme. Her body was found on Highway 138 within 24 hours. She knew when the cameras showed the neighbor, David Westerfield, that he was the killer.
(Probably why psychic stuff and polygraph stuff aren't allowed in court proceedings.)

February 26, 2002 -
The neighbor accused of abducting 7-year-old Danielle van Dam pleaded not guilty to charges of murder, kidnapping a child under 14 and possession of child pornography. Defense attorney Steven Feldman asked the judge to impose a gag order on all trial participants and law enforcement officials involved in the case, but that request was denied.

...Tidbit: The tip to the Recovery Center was on 2/26. A woman called in the tip. She claimed to be psychic and gave a description of the area and told them it needed to be searched again. It was not a Bill Garcia hunch as we suspected or were led to believe.

February 27, 2002 Minutes before Danielle van Dam's remains were found Feb. 27 (2:08 pm or before), David Westerfield's lawyers were brokering a deal with prosecutors:

He would tell police where he dumped the 7-year-old girl's body; they would not seek the death penalty.
(A bright prosecutor would have waited until Feldman had Westerfield's response. They had the body. They kinda knew where the body was.
Westerfield decides he'd rather not face the death penalty and says he left the body at Dehesa. What else would be necessary? He KNEW where the body was, he must be guilty, if not involved with an accomplice.)

February 27, 2002
DEHESA – Volunteer searchers found the decomposing body of a girl believed to be Danielle van Dam yesterday among a clutch of oak trees, nearly a month after she disappeared from her Sabre Springs bedroom.

"...AND THEN THERE IS MISS -- THERE IS A TAPE RECORDING BETWEEN MISS DENISE KEMAL AND A PSYCHIC WHICH DOESN'T HAVE ANY RELEVANCE. (on the 26th of February probably)

AND THEN LATER WITH A DETECTIVE ON FEBRUARY 27TH.

...Q. Did Lieutenant Jim Duncan give to your knowledge Ott permission to enter the jail after Mr. Westerfield was arraigned?
A. He directed us to discuss it with Sergeant Holmes.

...Q YOU TESTIFIED ON DIRECT EXAMINATION YESTERDAY THAT FOLLOWING MR. WESTERFIELD'S ARRAIGNMENT YOU WENT WITH DETECTIVE OTT TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY JAIL. DO YOU RECALL?
A I TESTIFIED AFTER THAT SCENE WAS PROCESSED. I NEVER SAID AFTER THE ARRAIGNMENT, SIR.

BY MR. FELDMAN:
Q DID YOU EVER VISIT MR. WESTERFIELD AFTER THE ARRAIGNMENT?
A YES, SIR.

...After February 7 or 8
Q. Isn't it also true, though, that after Mr. Westerfield told you that he had retained counsel and could no longer speak to you about the case, you nevertheless went back to his residence on another evening at about 10:30?
A. Yes

Q. This is not in regard to the execution of a search warrant, is it?
A. No, sir.

Q. What did Lieutenant Collins direct you to do?
A. Lieutenant Collins directed us to go back to talk to Mr. Westerfield so we could locate the little girl.

Q. Even though you knew at that point, because Westerfield had told you, that he was represented, correct?
A. Yes.-Testimony from Detective Mark Keyser

February 27th
"...But according to two sources, Newman told Ott and Keyser to take crime-scene photos of Danielle's body to the jail to show to Westerfield. Newman told them to go down there and show him the photos, and make sure they tape-recorded it, one source says. He wanted to see the exact photos Ott and Keyser were going to show him."

Q AND YOU WERE ALSO THE EVIDENCE TECHNICIAN WHO RECEIVED THE AUDIO TAPE OF THE JAIL CONTACT THAT DETECTIVES OTT AND KEYSER TRIED ON THE 28TH; ISN'T THAT TRUE?

"...I THINK -- I THINK INITIALLY I WAS THINKING MAYBE SOMETHING I DID COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND MAYBE IF A PHOTO THAT I HAD PRIOR TO ANY OTHER TAMPERING COULD HAVE MAYBE BENEFITTED. BUT THAT'S WHY..."

"i watched on the news, i -- the moment i realized the body was moved prior to a twenty-four-hour period going around to be able to take the same type of photos, i thought maybe my photos could make a difference or could possibly be considered something that's helpful. So i called the d. A.

Soriano • March
Q. In particular -- and could you tell us, first of all, how did you receive that particular jacket?
A. This jacket was received inside an extra large brown paper bag that was sealed from Karen Lealcala, forensic specialist at the San Diego Police Department crime laboratory.

Q. Did it have a particular item number?
A. At the time, no.

Q. Did you assign it an item number?
A. No, I did not.

...A. The first thing I did was clean my examination area. Laid out a clean paper, white examination paper, and then began to inventory the items that were inside that extra large sealed brown paper bag. And one of those items was the jacket, which was then labeled as item 94-D.

Q. In looking at the jacket -- and did you conduct an examination of the jacket itself?
A. Yes, I did.

Q. All right. First of all, the jacket itself, can you describe it for us, please?
A. It is a green and blue jacket, predominantly green. Blue on the neck, collar and some of the back areas of the jacket, along with some zipper buttons, as well as an orange inside area.

Q. In other words, when you say orange inside, that is the lining area?
A. Yes. The lining of the inside of the jacket was orange.

"and my jacket (green with dark blue collar/cuffs, & gold quilted inner lining, it had a zippered pocket folded under the collar which contained a hood. The front closed using a full length zipper which was covered by a flap with black snaps."

Soriano • June
Q ALL RIGHT. IS THIS THE PARTICULAR LARGE PAPER BAG THAT YOU OBTAINED THE ITEMS OF CLOTHING THAT YOU HAVE DESCRIBED EARLIER AND THEN I ASSUME ULTIMATELY PLACED THEM BACK INTO?
A YES. THE EXTRA LARGE BROWN PAPER BAG.

Q ALL RIGHT. IF YOU WOULD AT THIS TIME, IF YOU WOULD OPEN THE -- IT APPEARS OPEN AT THIS TIME, BUT CAN YOU OBTAIN THE JACKET THAT YOU LABELED 94D.

...Q. All right. I'm going to ask you if you would, Mr. Soriano, could you point to approximately that location on your own jacket that you're wearing today where you located 94-D-2 on the green jacket that you examined?

Q WHEN YOU FIRST OBTAINED THE JACKET FROM THIS LARGE PAPER BAG, DID IT HAVE ANY COVERINGS OVER IT?
A YES, IT DID.

Q WHAT?
A THE LARGE -- EXCUSE ME. THE BLUE-AND-GREEN JACKET, THE GREEN JACKET ACTUALLY, WAS COVERED IN SOME PLASTIC; AND IT WAS ACCOMPANIED ALSO WITH SOME HANGERS INSIDE.

Belom

Q: AND THEN THE ONE IN 75 IS WHAT?
A: 54129.
(Julie can't remember receipts from her own place of employment with the name of the business printed on top?)

Probable cause from an affidavit for a search warrant:
“...Also, on the morning of February 6, 2002, Westerfield admitted to detectives that he dropped off items at the described cleaning business and in fact had submitted items for cleaning on Monday morning February 4, 2002. During the interview Westerfield described the items he submitted for cleaning as “bedding.”

I recalled being advised by Twin Peaks Cleaners that the items submitted by Westerfield for cleaning on February 4, 2002, included a pair of slacks, a T-shirt and a sweater."

“...She also thought it was unusual for Westerfield to ask for “special service.” I asked what “special service” meant.
The employee told me that the term was used to describe “same day service.” The employee told me that as long as she has known Westerfield, he has never made a request for “special service.”

q: Let me show you what's been previously marked as courtexhibit 76. Can you recognize that piece of paper attached to the envelope, sir?
A: This looks like the photocopy that i had. I had a photocopy of the drycleaning receipt, and this looks similar to it.

tomsovic
q: I've had marked as court's exhibit 76 a brown paper bag with the number 22 on it. Contains a document. Let me ask you to look at that, if you would, detective.
A: It's a receipt with the name westerfield on it and a phone number. A box is marked dryclean and a laundry, so i would assume it's a cleaner's receipt.
(there's no phone number on the receipts which are attachment c.
What phone number was on the receipts? Why was the phone number to the cleaners obstructed before they were given to torgersen?)

(marked for id: = trial ex. 81-cleaners receipt)

q. And when you say the origination of the receipt, showing you exhibit what's been marked as exhibit 81, do you see the receipt that you went to the dry cleaners with on february 6th?
A. I see a photocopy of one of the receipts that looks similar to what i had, yes.

(Somebody was having a bit of fun with Torgersen. Exhibit 76 had the phone number to the cleaners on it so somebody decided to omit the top half of the receipt so it would take a bit longer to figure out exactly how the script was going to change with the appearance of the jacket.)

(Apparently there was a hand written receipt from the cleaners with Westerfield's name on it and a phone number for the cleaners, right Terrance? Somebody played you like a rented violin.

See how things take on a different appearance when numbers and logic are applied in the very simplest sense.)

During the execution of the search warrant for one of David Westerfield's vehicles, SDPD Detective Joe Howie located two receipts for what appeared to be a dry cleaning business.

Detective Howie seized those receipts and advised other detective of their existence.

Copies of these known receipts are attached hereto as ATTACHMENT C and incorporated by reference. I noticed that there was neither a number nor business name on the receipts. I was assigned the task to determine the business that likely had possession of clothing or other items that belonged to Westerfield.
